White To Play And Win

PLAYED my first game of the season for Hastings & St Leonards last night, in the Kent League (140 Average) at Rainham.

Black has just played the normal-looking 24...Rf8-e8?? in Spanton (167) - David Barnes (161), but now it is White to play and win

The game saw 25.Rxe8+? Qxe8 26.Qe5+! Qxe5 (forced) 27.Nxf7+ Kg7 28.Nxe5 (1-0, 54 moves).
But analysis engines point out an immediate win with 25.Qh3!, snagging Black's rook.
My win means I now have a seven-year unbeaten streak for Hastings. That's the good news; the not-so-good news is that the streak consists of seven games.
